grain crop, and yet improve the soil by gathering and storing nitrogen. They yield heavy crops for 
either grazing or hay; stock eat it greedily and thrive on it. They grow 3 to 4 feet high, but can be 
grazed when 6 to 10 inches high. If not grazed too closely, a second growth may be had. 
Sow in January, February or early in March, plow in 4 inches deep, after which drill in one bushel 
of oats to the acre to hold the vines off the ground. Sow one bushel to the acre. Postpaid. 5 lbs. 50c; 
10 lbs. 90c. Not prepaid, bn. $3.75. Larger quantities, $3.65 bu.

grown for the beans, they should be drilled in rows and cultivated like corn, using about *4 to % bushel 
of seed per acre. For hay they should be sown thickly, broadcast or in drills, at the rate of one bushel 
per acre.

When up a few inches they stool up like oats and 
each individual plant sends out from 6 to 15 very 
fine branches, which makes it one of the best for 
hay beans. It will mature very good in high alti¬ 
tudes and is upstanding and does not twine and fall.

small, black and flat. Can be sown from the latter 
part of April to the middle of July. Not prepaid,
